Digimon in Equestria Folder 1: Agumon in Equestria

After Flutters and I had packed up nicely, Thankfully Flutters had packed some meat for me assuming that I was a carnivore, which of course she was right. We had done some idle chit chat, with me asking random questions like what the mark on her rear was, which had gotten a blush from her for some reason. Apparently it was called a ‘Cutie Mark’ and it was a sign of what a pony's special talent was. The next question I asked, of course, was what her special talent was.

“I can talk to animals,” She had said after she was done blushing, a soft smile on her face, matched by a far off look in her eyes. It was a happy look at first… but it soon faded to gloom.

“I see…” I said wanting to ask if she had lost any animals in the attack but figuring it was too soon to ask such questions. It might have come off as insensitive.

“We should get going,” She said quickly as she finished fastening the saddlebags to her sides.

I nodded and she picked me up again between her hooves. Taking flight, we flew down to the rolling hill below, setting down a fair ways off.

“Unfortunately, I can’t fly us all the way there. I'm not that great at flying and you're too heavy for long flights even if I was,” Fluttershy said, giving me an apologetic smile.

“Yeah it's fine as long as we get where we're going without trouble,” I shrugged.

“We would have taken the train… if Skullmeramon hadn’t blown it up…” Fluttershy muttered.

“Wait, you guys had a train?” I asked, that felt out of place from what I’ve seen. I thought I was in a medieval period world, this world just keeps getting weirder.

“Yep,and thankfully, I do have a good sense of direction and a map!” Fluttershy said, quickly taking said map out of her bag and fumbling around with it in her hooves, before realizing something.

“You can’t walk and look at that map,” I said, giving her an amused smile.

“Yep,” She blushed as she handed the map to me.

“Alright, so you said we were going to the Crystal Empire?” I said looking over the map, choosing to ignore the Las Vegas and Manhattan analogs, “So where are we on this?” I asked as we began to walk.

“Right outside Cloudsdale, it should take a few days to get to the Crystal Empire, a week if we are delayed by something,” Fluttershy said after thinking for a second.

“Alright then…” I said, a bit discouraged by all the walking now before us.

“It won’t be so bad! I can treat you to some of the adventures me and my friends have had while we walk!” Fluttershy said, trying her best to cheer me up.

“I guess that sounds fun,” I muttered, my thoughts quickly turning to how annoying it’s gonna be to hear about Tara and her antics for the next few days.

Twilight’s pov:

“Okay, so that was unexpected,” I said, blinking at the tiny, red slime-like creature with three little feeler-like things on its head, and big black eyes that looked up at me in wonder. I had taken the egg back to my temporary abode at Rainbow’s house in Cloudsdale. Thankfully, her home only needed a moderate amount of cleaning.

“Puu?” It seemingly tried to ask of me.

“I wasn’t expecting you to hatch so soon, I mean you were just made yesterday, right?” I asked it, making a quick note in the journal I had grabbed to keep track of my information on Digimon.

“Puu,” It said, rolling on its side to mimic a shrug motion, at least it seemed to be intelligent.

“Well… I suppose I should be grateful, after all, we don’t have much time to wait for you to grow up,” I said as I reread the notes I had made during Connor’s speech. He had mentioned the first three stages passed by within the span of a few days, but he neglected to mention how fast the egg stage went, although I suppose the in training stage lasting a few hours should have clued me in.

My thoughts were interrupted by the creature speaking, “Punimon Digivolve to!” It cried before being encompassed within a sapphire-blue glow that gave it the appearance of being covered in a weave of glowing azure gems. Its feelers merged into a talon-like horn that came out of the top of its head, and it took a chubby head shape rather than a round slime.

“Tsunomon!” The now self-named Tsunomon said happily, “Oh boy, oh boy, I digivolved! And it only took 2 hours!”

“That’s great Tsunomon!” I said, giving it a big smile, picking it up in my magic and hugging it close, “You're gonna be so strong when you're all big. That mean old Connor won’t stand a chance!”

The door then unceremoniously slammed open behind me, “And SkullMeramon too, right Twilight?” The familiar voice of Rainbow Dash called out from behind me.

“Yep,” I said with a smirk, 'But that can wait until after I've taught that ungrateful brat a lesson,' I thought to myself.

“Oh cool, it got bigger,” Rainbow said, having just gotten back from getting the various food types I had asked her to retrieve.

“Yep, it’s developing at a wonderful place,” I said beaming down at the small Digimon that now snuggled up into my chest like a foal.

“So, when do you think it’ll do that Digimicsomething again?” Rainbow asked, setting down the bags of food.

I used my magic to take the fruits, vegetables, fish, meats, and hay packets out of the bag.

“Now to find out what this little guy eats,” I hummed as she placed the vegetables, some kind of cucumber, in front of the Digimon.

Tsunomon looked down at the cucumber for a few seconds, apparently unsure of what to make of the veggie.

“What is that?” He asked curiously looking up to me with wonder in his eyes.

“A cucumber,” I said pushing it closer.

“OOOO,” He said with a sound of absolute awe in his voice as if it was the most amazing thing in the world, “Can you eat it?” He asked sniffing it before recoiling in disgust, “Apparently not, it smells awful!”

“Well, you won’t know if it's awful till you try it,” I pointed out to him.

Tsunomon gave the cucumber another disgusted look before taking a bite, immediately recoiling and hacking up the chunk of a vegetable, now covered with saliva.

“I don’t want to try any more pony food, that was awful...” It whimpered.

“Well you have to eat something,” I huffed, “Let’s try some fish,” I took the fish out of the packet and hovered it in front of him, jumping back when he hungrily gulped the entire chunk down in one bite.

“Oh yay! That one was really tasty!” Tsunomon exclaimed, bouncing in place happily.

“O-okay then, wait, why did you just eat it up…” I said looking at it quizzically.

“It smelled good,” Tsunomon said, trying to do the shrug motion, which was now even harder due to it being even more head like than before.

“I see…” I said, making a note of that in my book.

“So, how are we going to get him to Digivolve to champion?” Rainbow asked, and that was… an excellent question to boot... Although giving him a gender was silly, Digimon aren’t like ponies. They're just data constructs. They don’t have genders.

“Well, it needs me to be in danger for it to Digivolve further, so we could go after some Ogremon I suppose,” I pondered.

“Um, Twilight?” Tsunomon piped up.

“Hmm?” I hummed, cocking my head to the side.

“Am I… a real person?” Tsunomon asked, looking a bit worried.

“Of course you are silly, just because you don’t have a gender doesn’t mean you aren’t a person. It just means you're different from ponies like Rainbow and me,” I reassured it.

“Oh… okay! That’s good! I wouldn't very much like not being a real person…” Tsunomon said, his worry fading away.

“Alright, now let's get to planning on your third Digivolution,” I declared, confidence filling me as I floated a map of Equestria in front of us while Rainbow went to get more fish for our little friend.

Connor’s Pov

“FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK,” I said as I ran, Fluttershy just a little ahead of me.

“You don’t have to swear!” Fluttershy squealed in horror as we ran.

“Yes, I do!” I retorted, curving to the right quickly so as to narrowly miss being bit in half by the big red bipedal dinosaur Digimon right behind us.

“What even is that thing!? It just popped up out of nowhere!” Fluttershy screeched.

“It's a Tyrannomon, a champion level Digimon with an attitude problem!” I explained, trying to run faster as I felt the beast's hot breath on my back.

“Attitude problem!?” Tyrannomon snarled, “I'll show you, ya little pipsqueak!”

I felt claws gripped around me as I was pulled back toward the red Digimon, “Pepper Breath!” I cried, blasting him in the face. He let out a roar of pain and shock as he dropped me. Thankfully, the gap between Champion was large but not as ungodly so as later stages. I landed on my tush before jumping back up to my feet. I quickly turned to see that Fluttershy had stopped a ways away, but not far enough it would seem.

“Tyrano Flame!”He declared, launching a large swirling blast of flame directly at Fluttershy.

“Pepper Breath!” I said desperately blasting at the much larger fireball, my tiny blast being deflected easily by the blast, said blast soaring over me and nearly hitting Fluttershy.

“Just get out of here, go! You’ll just get yourself killed! I'll distract him,” I shouted out at her.

She looked like she wanted to argue, but apparently, her fear pushed her forward more than her regret as she flew off as fast as she could.

“Just me and you now, fat ass,” I growled, looking up to the large dino.

Tyrannomon growled, “I'm gonna enjoy killin' you, boy,” He took another bite at me I in turn jumped back.

“Pepper Breath,” I said, blasting him in his rightmost eyes, causing him to let out yet another ear-splitting roar as he staggered back, holding said eye with his right arm. He then began blindly swinging wildly with the left one.

“You little runt, I'll make you pay!” Tyrannomon roared wildly, letting loose streams of flames around him. I only narrowly dodged the flames by jumping back out of range.

“Pepper Breath!” I blasted him in the face with my fireball, this time it only seemed to stagger him for a second. He didn’t show any sign of slowing this time before charging me.

“Wild Buster!” An aura of intense winds cloaked him as he dashed at me. Even if I dodged the direct charge, the winds would still send me flying, which is what happened when I tried to jump out of the way. I was now on my back lamenting the difference in our power and skill as I felt a great weight on my lower body. He had pinned me with his foot.

“Shows over, kiddo, see you in Primary Village,” Tyrannomon said with a smug grin as flames began to build within his mouth. This was it... some hero I turned out to be. Being wasted by some random Digimon that came out of nowhere. I suppose he came from one of the portals, but that didn’t matter anymore. Funnily enough, I found myself wondering if Fluttershy would be fine without me. I hoped she wouldn’t get cornered by some high-level Digimon on her way. But my thoughts were cut off by a yellow blur slamming into the side of Tyranomon’s head, he was not staggered or pushed back (in fact the blur was the one that was sent flying in the opposite direction. Connor would have laughed his ass at the sight if he wasn’t about to die) this momentary confusion and distraction caused him to lose his flames. He turned curiously to where the blur had landed, as did I.

There was Fluttershy, getting back on her hooves, shaking like a leaf. Fear gripped me once more.

“Get out of here you fucking idiot! It's no use!” I screamed at her.

She shook her head, “I-i c-can’t just leave you here!”

“Okay then, guess you can die together,” Tyranomon laughed, building flames into his mouth once more.

My fear melted into a rage as a felt a heat, unlike anything I’d ever felt before, “NO! YOU WON’T TOUCH HER, AGUMON DIGIVOLVE TO-”
